2. General Information on Data Processing
Scope of Processing Personal Data

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website and our content and services. Processing of personal data of our users generally takes place only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. For the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. Where processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party, and where the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override those interests, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Data Deletion and Retention Period

Personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a retention period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.


3. Provision of the Website and Creation of Log Files
Description and Scope of Data Processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer. The following data is collected: information about the browser type and version used, the operating system of the user, the IP address of the user, date and time of access. This data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Legal Basis

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Purpose of Data Processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. Storage in log files takes place to ensure the functionality of the website. The data also serves us to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

Duration of Storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of collection of data to provide the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after no more than seven days.


4. Contact Form and Email Contact
Description and Scope of Data Processing

A contact form is available on our website which can be used for electronic contact. If a user makes use of this option, the data entered in the input mask is transmitted to us and stored. These data are: name, email address, telephone number (optional) and the message. At the time the message is sent, the following data is also stored: the IP address of the user and the date and time of submission. Your consent is obtained for the processing of data during the submission process, with reference to this privacy policy. Alternatively, contact can be made via the email address provided. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted with the email will be stored.

Legal Basis

The legal basis for processing data is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR where the user has given consent. The legal basis for processing data transmitted in the course of sending an email is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If the email contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Purpose of Data Processing

Processing of personal data from the input mask serves us solely for handling the contact request. In the case of contact by email, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data. The other personal data processed during the submission process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

Duration of Storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data from the contact form's input mask and data sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively resolved.
